Developed for the player who is looking for ultimate rebound on the drum and ride cymbal, the American Jazz line is comprised of six models which feature a long taper in the shaft for that great feel! The neck specifications are sizeable enough to create dark cymbal sounds, and the small tear drop tip keeps everything in focus. The AJ1 sticks have a 5B shaft that feels full-sized yet plays "lightning fast".

For a delicate touch, these sticks have been almost ideal for me. I've played gigs with these where the volume had to be extremely low. The thinned-out taper really helps in that regard. The other nice thing about these is while the taper and tip are thin, the grip portion is wide enough to not cramp up during shows. As with most of my experience with Vic Firth, the sticks have also been as straight as possible.
